 What happens when you put middle school students together to create art? You have a fantastic all day art making blast! These students created tons of art during our art camp. They explored different media and had fun playing. We even had a few competitions creating the tallest hat and the tallest tower. This was a very special group of students that we can't wait to have in high school someday! It was wonderful to see so many friendships develop through out the camp days. Special thanks to our two camp counselors Sydney and Anthony!    Students in Creative Computer Art created a wide array of expressive works of art. Students used Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator to make their masterpieces!       Multicultural Club purchased 15 Bren Bataclan paintings and then gave away each one!
They spread kindness by gifting 5 paintings to faculty that have has a positive impact on them and then placed free paintings around the school for students to pick up. Each giveaway painting included this sign with a "Call to Action" "Spread kindness wherever you go! Smile at a random person. Say hello. Offer a kind word".   The grade 9 Design students explored many materials and concepts this year. Here are a few of their projects created this year.        The 13th Annual Portfolio Exhibition Students of the Portfolio and AP Studio Art classes BHS Lower Library School-day reception: Wednesday, May 22, 8:43 - 9:27 am (Period 7) Evening reception: Wednesday, May 22, 6:00 - 7:30 pm Our Portfolio and AP Studio Art students will be holding their reception for the 13th Annual Portfolio Exhibition this Wednesday, from 6:00 - 7:30 PM. That same morning they'll also be hosting a daytime reception for all faculty and for the classes of their own teachers. The exhibiting students are: Gati Aher Lindsay Baxter Nicole Benjamin Kevin Buxton Martello Cesar Michela Giordano Erin Kerr Josh MacLeod Owen Magnuson Alex Markarian Sophie Quinn Sarah Schissler Naaz Thotathil Ryan Tortorici Hailey Wood The Portfolio Exhibition differs from Burlington High’s other annual Art Exhibition (in March) in that it's student-organized. Students in the advanced art classes self-select the work to be displayed, they organize their own personal exhibit spaces, and they'll be on hand to discuss the bodies of work they have developed over the past year or more. One long-term effort from each Portfolio student will be on display: a Concentration, a series of artworks focused on a particular theme or method, with challenges and objectives set by the student. Visitors will be able to speak to the artists about their goals and their processes.     Art Club had a wonderful fundraiser! The students entered a raffle to win the prize of two tickets to Happy Place. Special thanks to Art Department Interns Matt Collina and Cynara Ferraro for all the great work that they did running the fundraiser and to Moxie for the ticket donation!      The Tenacity Challenge 2019 took place on Saturday, April 27. The Latino and African American Tenacity Challenge is an annual academic scholarship competition for teams of Latino and African-American students from urban and suburban high schools across Massachusetts The students enjoyed this year's theme: The Social Significance of Hip Hop, Rap and Spoken Word. In preparation for the competition students heard from several guest speakers, including a spoken word artist and poet Reggie Gibson, and a university professor, Austin Ashe. In addition to developing an argument about the influence of hip hop and spoken word, each team has developed a creative response to a work of literature, designed and created a mural, and studied and prepared for the math and science quiz bowl. This year we were fortunate to have five teams participate in the competition. Team: Think Tank Dylan Lechner, Eyssa Benhida, Kenan Wilson, Max Lechner, and Luis Raoul Villalta-Santana Team: The Color of Revenge Amelia Murphy, Charitie Valdes, Zahra Mohamed, Nadia Kasozi, Aida Gachago, and Ashraf Kimbugwe Team: Back of The Bus Tatiana Hawkins, Halleluia Zeyohannes, Serena Hawkins, Rachael Ssozi, Edgar Nzikoba, and Andrea Rodriguez Perez Team: P6WER Cheyenne Watson, Genevieve Kugonza, Winnie Sekyaya, Oluwamayowa (Maya) Ariyo, Hirschfield Ssozi, and Adele Jingo Team: Enlightened Ones Flowerjoy Burley, Dorothy Mulo, Jeremiah Burley, Celine Nganga, Aidan Olivier Louis, and Ishmael Stein Norelus Congratulations to all of the students who participated in this year's competition!
